    Did anyone watch the Casey game ? Seriously only Sestan and Moniz-Wakefield would be capable.  Both deserve a game. 
     

    outs.  Brown again, Petty, Billings, Lever (concussion) Chandler (knee) 

    in.  JVR.  Langdon.  Sestan. AMW.  Tomlinson.

    Agreed. Already playing a lot of kids; let’s not throw them all in.

    Half the Casey regulars didn’t play cos they were carry over emergencies for the AFL game

    Those that did play at Casey are, presumably, further back in the pack 

    OUT: Lever, Billings, Sparrow, B Brown
    IN: JVR, Langdon, Fullarton, Tholstrup

    Petty to return to defence where he’s clearly more comfortable

    I somehow doubt that the above will happen tho

    I think we need to hedge our bets a little. It’s possible 2021 is all we’re gonna get, or it’s possible we might still be in the flag race. It’s hard to say at 6-4 in May.

    So I would be in favor of cutting clear deadwood like Billings who won’t get a kick in September anyway, for someone like Laurie or Sestan. 
    Woey Jr was one I thought might not be up to it but he’s starting to flourish with opportunity. 
    Ben Brown is another who needs to go, but the cupboard is a little bare. Absolutely not to Jeffo coming in lol, I have faith in him but it’s too soon.

    Tomlinson one and done for Lever. 

    Otherwise I think Goody has to roll with the same guys and hope we can peak later in the year or pinch one in an open year.

    Out: Lever, BBB, Billings. (Howes sub)

    In: JVR, Fullarton, Langdon

    FB: McVee May McDonald
    HB: Rivers Petty Woey
    C: Langdon Oliver Windsor 
    HF: Chandler  Fullarton Viney 
    FF: McAdam JVR Pickett 
    Foll: Gawn ANB  Salem
    Int: Bowey , Sparrow, Fritsch, Petracca
    S: Howes

    Probably have to give Petty the chance down back, he at least had a go in the ruck.

    Which means Fullarton I guess??

    Seen enough of BBB, he’s on a hiding to nothing but gave nothing. Seen more than enough of Billings.

    Time to reward Woey’s consistent effort with a full game, could be half back for Howes, could be wing with Langdon forward more.

    Wouldn't be surprised if we also see Tholstrup back in the side either. Maybe even a Sestan debut.

    Laurie? 🤣 he's genuinely a worse version of Billings.

    Probably only two things for sure.

    Lever misses due to concussion.

    At least one of Brown and Petty is dropped/moved out of the forward line (they combined for 1.2 from 8 disposals and 3 marks. That's not good enough for one of them on their own, let alone both of them).

    Presumably JVR replaces the dropped/moved key forward. Tomlinson or Petty for Lever you'd think.

    We don’t know that for sure. He’s barely had an extended opportunity. At worst he’s rubbish, like Billings is anyway, and at best he might find himself like Taj has done.

    • REPORT: Hawthorn

      There was a time during the current Melbourne cycle that goes back to before the premiership when the club was the toughest to beat in the fourth quarter. The Demons were not only hard to beat at any time but it was virtually impossible to get the better them when scores were close at three quarter time. It was only three or four years ago but they were fit, strong and resilient in body and mind. Sadly, those days are over. This has been the case since the club fell off its pedestal about 12 months ago after it beat Geelong and then lost to Carlton. In both instances, Melbourne put together strong, stirring final quarters, one that resulted in victory, the other, in defeat. Since then, the drop off has been dramatic to the point where it can neither pull off victory in close matches, nor can it even go down in defeat  gallantly.

    • CASEY: Footscray

      At twenty-four minutes into the third term of the game between the Casey Demons and Footscray VFL at Whitten Oval, the visitors were coasting. They were winning all over the ground, had the ascendancy in the ruck battles and held a 26 point lead on a day perfect for football. What could go wrong? Everything. The Bulldogs moved into overdrive in the last five minutes of the term and booted three straight goals to reduce the margin to a highly retrievable eight points at the last break. Bouyed by that effort, their confidence was on a high level during the interval and they ran all over the despondent Demons and kicked another five goals to lead by a comfortable margin of four goals deep into the final term before Paddy Cross kicked a couple of too late goals for a despondent Casey. A testament to their lack of pressure in the latter stages of the game was the fact that Footscray’s last ten scoring shots were nine goals and one rushed behind. Things might have been different for the Demons who went into the game after last week’s bye with 12 AFL listed players. Blake Howes was held over for the AFL game but two others, Jack Billings and Taj Woewodin (not officially listed as injured) were also missing and they could have been handy at the end. Another mystery of the current VFL system.

      The Demons head back out on the road in Round 10 when they travel to Queensland to take on the reigning Premiers and the top of the table Lions who look very formidable. Can the Dees cause a massive upset? Who comes in and who goes out?

      Wayward kicking for goal, dump kicks inside 50 and some baffling umpiring all contributed to the Dees not getting out to an an early lead that may have impacted the result. At the end of the day the Demons were just not good enough and let the Hawks run away with their first win against the Demons in 7 years.
